FastDecay

by bradbot1

FastDecay makes leaf blocks in a world decay much sooner once their supporting logs are gone.

FabricServer-side onlyApache License 2.0Open source1.17 – 1.18.1

What it does

Leaves that are no longer connected to a log break off faster than in vanilla Minecraft, so floating canopies clear within a short time after a tree is cut. The mod is open source under the Apache License 2.0, runs on the server alone, and has Fabric files for 1.17, 1.17.1, 1.18 and 1.18.1, with v1.1.0 as the latest build for 1.18.1.

Key features

  1. Faster leaf decay

    Leaf blocks that lose their log support decay far more quickly than the default rate.

  2. Server-side behavior

    Only the server runs the change, so players join without installing anything.

  3. Vanilla tree pattern kept

    Trees still grow and keep their leaves; only the decay timing of unsupported leaves changes.
